Prototyping through incremental sheet forming is emerging as a latest trend in the manufacturing industries for fabricating personalized components according to customer requirement. In this study, a laboratory scale single-point incremental forming test setup was designed and fabricated to deform AA6061 sheet metal plastically. In addition, response surface methodology with Box–Behnken design technique was used to establish different regression models correlating input process parameters with mechanical responses such as angle of failure, part depth per unit time and surface roughness. Correspondingly, the regression models were implemented to optimize the input process parameters, and the predicted responses were successfully validated at the optimal conditions. It was observed that the predicted absolute error for angle of failure, part depth per unit time and surface roughness responses was approximately 0.9%, 4.4% and 6.3%, respectively, for the optimum parametric combination. Furthermore, the post-deformation responses from an optimized single point incremental forming truncated cone were correlated with microstructural evolution. It was observed that the peak hardness and highest areal surface roughness of 158 ± 9 HV and 1.943 μm, respectively, were found near to the pole of single-point incremental forming truncated cone, and the highest major plastic strain at this region was 0.80. During incremental forming, a significant increase in microhardness occurred due to grain refinement, whereas a substantial increase in the Brass and S texture component was responsible for the increase in the surface roughness.

The single point incremental forming process (SPIF) are suited for sheet metal prototyping, because it is a low cost production process that produces sheet metal part without any used of die, and easy to adjust the part’s geometry by change toolpath. But the quality of forming parts is still in doubt. In some applications, such as mould cavity for rapid mould and the medical parts, in this case the inside surface roughness plays an importance role. In this paper, the SPIF process parameters that affected to the inner surface roughness were experimental studied. The investigated parameters are composing of tool feed rate, side overlap, depth step and tool radius. The 2k-p factorial experimental design was used to analyze the interaction between each parameter. The results showed that increasing feed rate and depth step decreased inner surface roughness. Reducing tool rotational speed and feed rate reduced inner surface roughness. So increasing depth step with decreasing side overlap reduced inner surface roughness. The large tool radius and lower side overlap improved inner surface roughness. The large tool radius and higher depth step improved inner surface roughness. And last, reducing tool rotational speed with larger tool radius, the inner surface roughness is decreased.

This paper focuses on studying how mineral oil, sunflower, soybean, and corn lubricants influence friction and wear effects during the manufacturing of aluminum parts via the single point incremental forming (SPIF) process. To identify how friction, surface roughness, and wear change during the SPIF of aluminum parts, Stribeck curves were plotted as a function of the SPIF process parameters such as vertical step size, wall angle, and tool tip semi-spherical diameter. Furthermore, lubricant effects on the surface of the formed parts are examined by energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) images, the Alicona optical 3D measurement system, and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Results show that during the SPIF process of the metallic specimens, soybean and corn oils attained the highest friction, along forces, roughness, and wear values. Based on the surface roughness measurements, it can be observed that soybean oil produces the worst surface roughness finish in the direction perpendicular to the tool passes (Ra =1.45 μm) considering a vertical step size of 0.25 mm with a 5 mm tool tip diameter. These findings are confirmed through plotting SPIFed Stribeck curves for the soybean and corn oils that show small hydrodynamic span regime changes for an increasing sample step-size forming process. This article elucidates the effects caused by mineral and vegetable oils on the surface of aluminum parts produced as a function of Single Point Incremental Sheet Forming process parameters.

<p>The aim of the current work was to analyse the influence of the process parameters (tool diameter, size of the vertical step of tool, feed rate and spindle speed) on the quality of the processed surface, expressed in terms of roughness and macrostructure in the case of parts processed by single point incremental forming. The analysis was made on A1050 aluminium metal sheets. The obtained results revealed that the process parameters influence differently the surface quality, the worst influence being exerted by the increase of the vertical step of tool. </p>
